The tongues O C aresho'wn in one piece with the button-hole B, but may be made separate.

In the button-hole shown, the ends'of the frame A are represented as being bent around the spring wire,

but it is obvious that; the spring wire maybe bent around the ends of the frame, they being bent; pamllel to the upper side of the frame for that; purpose; or

the frame and wire piece may be secured together in an other suit-able way. do not claim the method shown of attaching the wire piece to the frame, as I am aware that it is notnew; nor do 1 claim any form of bucklenlone. or metallic button-hole alone.
